I just noted that Redskins is a racial slur. Im not gonna debate that whole list on which ones you think are worse or not as bad as others.

Maybe it is to some people. I dont think there is anything wrong with fighting irish. Maybe you should poll all the irish and lets find out?

Maybe if you read that SI section again you would understand why. I dont think every HS, college, and pro team that has a Indian mascot or team name are called the Redskins. Im only saying the word Redskin is a racial slur.
I understand everything you have said in your posts and you bring up alot of good points. All im saying is I can understand both point of views and that the word Redskin has been used as a racial slur.
